  1. Anti Samypicking a fight with xss Arshan Dabirsiaghi, OWASP Peasant Senior Application Security Engineer, Aspect Security arshan.dabirsiaghi@aspectsecurity.com (301) 604 - 4882

  2. who am i? NameArshan Dabirsiaghi (gesundheit) TradeSecurity hobbyist & developer JobSenior Application Security Engineer with Aspect Security Side JobLiverpool fan (go gerrard!) Political AffiliationPlutocrat Quote“poor people are crazy; i’m eccentric”

  3. samyvsarshan • aka good vs evil, • sammyhagarvsdavid lee roth • ryuvs ken • …an old age old battle

  4. Arshan samy • Taller, better looking • Persian (exotic) • More chest hair • Amazing in the sack • Lots of friends • Can divide by zero • Criminal record • Iranian (call DHS) • Untested in the sack • A lot of notoriety and street cred • Can’t get friends the old fashioned way, has to hack them

  5. talk agenda – socraticstylez • what is stored/persistent xss? • we’ll figure out the problem • who is samy? • we’ll see a real world example of problem • why are you wasting my time? its nice out • i’ll explain how i can help solve the problem • how can you prove it? • demo + metrics

  6. reflected xss – the trogdor analogy • attacker crafts a URL that submits JS to the application and sends that URL it to eleventy billion (11x10mc2) peasants • one peasant clicks on the link and their browser sends the JS to the application • the web app reflects the input (containing JS) to the browser and the JS gets exec’d • xss has now burninated the victim

  7. reflected xss - illustrated email/googleTalk/irc/etc. *deAthL0rd420* jen.innocent@good.com Hey Jen, click on this link - itsa soooo good!!!?! http://www.good.com/logon.jsp?uid=“><script>alert(‘xss’)</script>

  8. reflected xss - illustrated HTTP/HTTPS www.good.com jen.innocent@good.com GET /logon.jsp?uid=“><script>alert(‘xss’)</script> HTTP/1.1 User-Agent: Lynx Cookie: Session_Cookie: F24EX98H3L3GAW1;

  9. reflected xss - illustrated HTTP/HTTPS www.good.com jen.innocent@good.com <html> <body><form action=“logon.jsp”> Logon Name: <input name=“uid” value=“”><script>alert(‘xss’)</script>”> … </form></body> </html>

  10. stored xss – the arsenic in the well • attacker submits sticky (persisted) input to the app (e.g., blog comment/user profile) • i mention the input contains JS? whoops • later, some random peasant comes along and views the profile or blog comment • application displays comment/profile to user browser and JS inside it gets exec’d instead of displayed on browser • hours later, a seagull dnkypunches an angry pirate to death (totally unrelated)

  11. stored xss - illustrated HTTP/HTTPS *deAthL0rd420* www.good.com POST /setMyProfile.jsp HTTP/1.1 User-Agent: Lynx Cookie: Session_Cookie: F24EX98H3L3GAW1; profile=<script>alert(‘hi’)</script>

  12. stored xss - illustrated HTTP/HTTPS www.good.com 1st person to view attacker’s profile <html> <body> … <div id=“profile”>This user’s profile: <script>alert(‘hi’)</script> 2nd person to view attacker’s profile

  13. the story of samy • weren’t you here an hour ago? • well, you blew it • … ok, i’ll tell

  14. the story of samy (part 2 of 3) • myspace™ is one giant advertisement banner that has a hidden social networking site inside of it (like an easter egg) • you setup a profile, pics, etc. for other people to see • samy wanted an xss worm in his own profile that made the reader his friend and new source of worm

  15. the story of samy (part 3 of 3) • myspace did well not to let any JS through • samy used ‘java\nscript’ since ‘javascript’ was filtered out, String.fromCharCode(34) to generate a double quote, etc. • 10 hours – 560 friends, 13 hours – 6400, 18 hours – 1,000,000, 19 hours – entire site is down

  16. what did myspace do wrong? • they used a word blacklist • negative security models are error prone • unknown attacks / fragmenting / encoding can usually bypass (sometimes trivially)

  17. do sites really need html from users? Yes, They Really Do

  18. this is a bad situation…

  19. Anti Samy 2007 • an HTML validation tool and API • funded by an OWASP Spring of Code grant • uses a positive security model • takes dirty HTML/CSS that could contain xss and spits out a safe version of that input while retaining all formatting code • (applause)

  20. goals for anti-samy • provide high assurance • provide 99% (or close enough) protection against xss • browser wars, new w3c directives, etc. cause rules to change • be portable • works with terribly broken html • easy-to-use API or tool • use single XML policy file with default settings providing high assurance • absorbable by validator implementations in different languages • be able to provide friendly feedback, able to just “make it work” • users may copy html/js from a site they like • not all JavaScript is xss, user intention may not be malicious • help user to tune html/js to work with requirements • use it to meet girls • this goal is not going so well • do you know anyone?

  21. anti samy seen from outer space 1) dirty html gets run through nekoHTML for structural sanitization (and legal validation)

  22. neko validation body 1a) <body> <div id=“foo”> <imgsrc=“javascript:xss()”> </div> <b><u> <p style=“expression(…)”> samy is my hero</p> </u></b> \0<<script src=“hax.js”> </script> div b (text) script id=foo &#000;&lt; src=hax.js img u src=javascript:xss() p style=expression(…) (text) samy is my hero 1b) • - DOM object • - fragmenting attacks gone • html now sanitized

  23. anti samy seen from outer space 2) Step through DOM tree and validate each node according to the policy file… filter / remove nodes / content or attributes as needed

  24. antisamy.xml – customize to your site’s policy xss attack surface

  25. common stores in antisamy.xml Common Regular Expressions (write once then use anywhere by name) Common Tag Attributes (define attribute once then use in many tags) Global Tag Attributes (define implicit attributes for all tags)

  26. validation step-through (this slide is bananas) head antisamy.xml div b i (text) id=foo &#000;&lt; meta img content=0;url=javascript:attax() src=bar.jpg http-equiv=refresh p style=expression(…) a href=javascript:attax() li style=background-image: url(‘javascript:attax()’) script (text) src=http://evil.com/hax.js samy is my hero Tag Not Found!

  27. anti samy seen from outer space 3) Return as string or DOM object

  28. CleanResults object • getCleanHTML() - String • getCleanXMLDocumentFragment()- DOM • getScanTime() – double • getErrorMessages() – String[]

  29. how do i get started? • figure out policy on what tags and attributes to allow for your site • customize one of the default antisamy.xml files • add 5-10 lines of code to your app • done! congratulate self with guilt free visit to singles.net (look for tom stracener’salternative profile)

  30. using antisamy api is really hard

  31. project goals • work to create a peer reviewed, time tested solution for validating html • destroy the idea that letting users provide their own html is too dangerous • enable the next gen of user generated content sites samy is a threat to western society

  32. what about CSRF? • simple – go through antisamy.xml and remove the ability to have offsite resources • changing common attributes make this real easy • hosting csrf attacks is an accepted risk for many

  33. known vulns? • us-ascii (any modulated charset – anybody check the other charsets?) utf-7 (if it even works anymore) – ANY time the browser is on a different planet than the input • I’ve asked pretty much everyone I met to look for bad regexps in it and tom stracener(m4m singles.net) found one bypass during the conference [but still gave it very high praise] • i need help locking down the regular expressions – plz help test we are a community!

  34. change the world – for the better • Why should ebay, google, myspace be the only people able to have this functionality? this is my pdp slide

  35. demo time

  36. demo time (0 of 3 – few javascript tests) • everything on rsnake’s cheat sheet • side note: really useful wasc project (enumerating javascript entry points) • Solution: already defended against in default policy files

  37. demo time (1 of 3 –absolute div overlay) • create a div in our profile that overlays the entire page (or a subsection) • extremely effective phishing vector • SSL certificate is valid • look and feel matches expectations • Solution: insert a stylesheet rule in the policy file to prevent access to any position value except those we want

  38. demo time (2 of 3 – div hijacking) • redefine an existing div “above” our profile • most stylesheets defined at the beginning of the page in <head> or “at the top” • Solution: blacklist the IDs and selector names you want to prevent the user from being able to modify

  39. demo time (3 of 3 – all your base are belong to us) • insert a <base> tag to hijack internal resources • used to define a base for all relative URLs on the page • isn’t used a whole lot as it doesn’t work within javascript & some other issues • Solution: remove <base> tag from policy file

  40. Thanks to: • jasonli for helping out with coding and brainstorming css attacks • jeffwilliams: useful feedback and general awesomeness • owasp for the grant • all you guys for listening • samy for being a hero
